“We’re very appreciative for The North Carolina Department of State Treasurer reaching out to inform us of the unclaimed funds,” said Owen. “The agency will utilize these funds in our charity patient care program benefiting those in our community who otherwise would not have had access to quality end-of-life health care.”

In 2017, Hospice of Davidson County provided $210,000 in charity care.

“At the Department of State Treasurer, we’re in the check delivery business and through the N.C. Cash Program we were able to reconnect Hospice of Davidson County with this significant amount of unclaimed property, knowing that they will put this money to good use,” said Treasurer Dale R. Folwell CPA.“I encourage all North Carolinians to visit our unclaimed property site at NCCash.com to see if they have money waiting to be claimed, free of charge.”

For more than 30 years, Hospice of Davidson County has been a recognized leader in the advancement of quality end-of-life care across the Piedmont Triad region. Each day, the ACHC accredited agency provides comfort for more than 140 patients and their families, in a variety of locations, including private homes, in long-term care and skilled-nursing facilities and at the Henry Etta & Bruce Hinkle Hospice House, the only inpatient hospice facility in Davidson County.
